Excerpt from The New Generation

What the Tenth Legion was to the conquering army of Julius Cæsar; what the Imperial Guard was to Napoleon the First - the Epworth League is to the Methodist Episcopal Church. It is an aggregation of piety, zeal, enthusiasm, and consecration, such as Methodism never saw before. Eight hundred thousand of the very chivalry of the church are banded together in a blessed conspiracy to save the world.

Such an organization means discipline, and discipline transforms mobs into conquering legions. Discipline made it possible for Havelock to lead his little army fifteen hundred miles, to Lucknow's relief, through a hundred millions of enemies.
